Climber rappelling down Pinnacle Peak with Mt. Rainier in the background

This is a great photo of a climber rappelling down Pinnacle Peak, with our neighbor Mount Rainier in the background.  The Nisqually Glacier is prominent.  Most of the largest glaciers in the continental U.S. are on Mount Rainier.  Near the bottom of the mountain, you can see the lodge at Paradise and the network of trails through the meadows.
